Chapter 257 It Goes Without Saying
Okay, let's go right away.
On the balcony on the second floor of Baibao, Lin Qiu watched Brother Long and Sister Long leaving, immersed in deep thought.
A key part of the teleportation hub plan is the teleportation crystal that stores the space beacon. During the process of going to the Nine Eyes Alliance, Lin Qiu spent a large amount of gold coins to purchase three teleportation crystals.
It's not that Lin Qiu doesn't want to sell more, but because the teleportation crystals are complex in craftsmanship and are important strategic resources, and their value cannot be measured in gold coins, so the Nine Eyes Alliance only allows Lin Qiu to purchase three.
Although the materials are available, Lin Qiu needs to take action to store the teleportation crystal and draw the spell circle. However, in view of the current situation, Lin Qiu must stay in the White Fortress to prevent war from breaking out again.
Therefore, plans to create delivery nodes had to be postponed.
After doing his best, Master Lin Qiu continued to study his soul spell book. He benefited a lot from this trip to the southern part of the continent.
The bustling port city of the Kingdom of Pavlan is Victoria Harbor.
Prince Raman Cecil of the Silver Deer was dressed in traditional aristocratic clothing, drinking red wine from a goblet, leaning on the window sill of the seaside stone castle, watching the seagulls flying under the red sun in the distance and the pleasant sea breeze blowing on him Silver shiny short ear-length hair.
Drinking wine and admiring the scenery, Raman listened to the sound of waves crashing on the rocks and the laughter of young girls coming from the banquet in the castle; a smile tugged at the corners of his lips as he murmured to himself.
The scenery of Victoria is as charming as ever, but alas, I am just a passerby.
A middle-aged man was peeling an apple in the house. The dagger in his hand danced rapidly between his fingers. In a blink of an eye, all the peels fell off the surface of the fruit. If someone picked it up, they would find that the widths of these peel fragments were exactly the same, almost as large as As if measured with a ruler.
The man heard Raman muttering softly, picked up the apple in his hand, took a bite, and said casually.
Victoria Harbor is a territory directly under the royal family. If Your Highness wants to stay, you can write a letter to His Majesty and request it as a fiefdom.
The handsome Prince Laman listened to his words and smiled softly.
Uncle Guled joked, if I dare to stay in Victoria and not come back, my dear brother will ask you to drag me back by my collar.
The heroic wanderer Gurred Campbell smiled and replied: If Prince Raman really stays in Victoria Harbor, the king will have to work harder and he will be very anxious.
Although there are many examples of competition for the throne on the continent of Fabolus, in the royal family of Palan, there is a rare intimacy and harmony between the Silver Deer Prince Raman Cecil and his brother Palan XVII.
Raman Cecil and Pauline XVII had a deep relationship since childhood. After Raman Cecil helped his brother defeat his opponent and ascend to the throne of the king.
So much so that there are rumors that the only difference between Raman Cecil and the king is that the throne is smaller.
If this incident in the overseas islands was not so complicated and important, Paul XVII would not have put Prince Silver Deer in charge of the entire situation.
Worry flashed in Raman Cecil's deep green pupils.
Uncle Guled, this Lin Qiu is difficult to deal with. If it weren't for temptation, I really don't want to provoke him. If it can be resolved through negotiation this time, let's resolve it peacefully, even if it costs more.
The dagger in Horsman Campbell's hand flashed, and his tone was stern.
Yes, it is incredible that he can save the sea cry beasts in the sea and the town of Bailey...
A sudden knock on the door interrupted the conversation between the two.
who is it?
Your Highness, Lord Guled, I am Peter Hill, and the clipper is ready.
Prince Laman. Good job, Peter loaded up.
The strong man in navy uniform saluted: It is my honor to serve you.
Three speedboats sailed out of Victoria Harbor, and the fishermen opened their eyes among the rocks on the seabed at night.
The heroic wanderer's senses were so keen that he immediately felt the anger radiating from the fisherman and frowned.
Your Highness, there are eyes at the bottom of the sea.
Prince Raman smiled happily, don't worry about this for now, we are not here to cause trouble.
At the same time, Prince Raman's mood became more and more heavy: from the water, it is self-evident about the race of the spectators, and it is self-evident who is the master behind the spectators.
Lin Qiu was already on guard.
Prince Raman sighed in his heart, feeling that the pressure of this operation was a little greater.
Baicheng.
Lord Lin Qiu received news that Raman Cecil, the Silver Deer Prince of the Kingdom of Pavlan, and the heroic wanderer Gurred Campbell took three fast boats and approached White Castle.
Lin Qiu didn't understand the purpose of these guests, so he had to wait for their arrival and make a decision based on the situation.
In the hall of White Castle, Lin Qiu received guests from the Kingdom of Palan.
Prince Raman bowed slightly to Lin Qiu on his crystal throne.
Greetings, Lord Lin Qiu, Lord of the Thousand Islands, Lord Lin Qiu, I send cordial greetings from King Pavlan, may your reign be long.
Prince Raman clapped his hands, and a group of richly dressed people came in, carrying gifts of all sizes.
Lin Qiu felt a creepy feeling in his heart and he spoke.
Welcome, Your Highness the Prince, and Lord Gured, I feel the kindness of the Kingdom of Palan.
However, as far as I know, there is no business relationship between White Castle and the Pavlan Kingdom. I wonder what the significance of His Highness’s visit is?
The two-headed ogre leader ordered the gifts to be collected and placed in a side hall. He asked two ogre guards to bring two chairs for people to sit on. They were carefully placed behind Prince Laman and the heroic wanderer, who sat down without incident.
These ogres were very careful from beginning to end and did not make any sound. They were obviously well-trained. The fact that they could train ogres with low intelligence to such an extent is enough to explain the problem.
Prince Laman corrected his posture.
The main reason I asked myself to visit (the king of) this time was to make a deal with Master Lin Qiu.
Master Lin Qiu has always been interested in making money through cooperation.
Oh, what kind of post-deal?
A win-win deal. In recent years, overseas islands have been gradually developed by you, Mr. Lin Qiu. Your partners have made a lot of money, and the Kingdom of Paflan also wants to take a share of the pie.
Baibao's foreign trade share has been allocated and the contract has been signed. You arrived too late.
No, no, no, there is another interest that needs to be further discussed. There are only three types of commodities exported by Baibao: spices, seafood and other delicacies, luxury goods represented by pearl jewelry, and various metal minerals represented by iron ore.
Looking at Lin Qiu who was listening with great interest, Prince Raman paused and continued.
The first two are almost taken over by the Nine Eyes Alliance. Naturally, Pavilan does not dare to have any evil intentions, but the metal minerals are sold to Pavilan's mortal enemy, the Lovi Kingdom. Therefore, according to common sense, they must fight for it.
